User access tokens created by a {% data variables.product.prodname_github_app %} will expire after eight hours by default, and then must be regenerated using the included refresh token. Owners of {% data variables.product.prodname_github_apps %} can optionally configure these tokens to never expire instead, but this is not recommended due to the security implications.
